Static stiffness and stress distribution of gasoline and natural gas vehicle platforms subjected to torsion loads

In this paper, a Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) body was developed from the gasoline base platform by modifying the liquid fuel tank compartment to suit three cylindrical natural gas tanks. Analyses were carried out to determine the stiffness and stress distribution of the NGV body. This is to ensure tha...
